International Delight Light Iced Coffee #LightIcedCoffee #CBias

How often do you like going to your favorite coffeehouse to buy one of those yummy, yet pretty darn expensive, blended coffee drinks? I decided I really wanted to try to make something that was super yummy, would taste like something I would order at my favorite coffee shop but for a lot cheaper.

Now, to be completely honest, I don’t like coffee. I do like some of the coffee drink but if all I taste is COFFEE then I will not like it. My husband is a huge coffee lover so we balance each other out quite nicely (also, he doesn’t like sweets and I surely do! I mean, who doesn’t like sweets? What’s wrong with him?!?!) So, when deciding on what flavor I wanted for my drink, I know I needed something that tasted more like chocolate or something that had some sweetness to it.

I found Mocha International Delight Light Iced Coffee in the dairy section & knew that was the one I wanted to try. Now I just had to figure out what to add to it. I was genuinely surprised at how many flavors of International Delight coffee creamer there were in the next case over.! My daughter & I both agreed that we couldn’t wait to try the Cold Stone Creamery Sweet Cream creamer. We also made a stop to pick up some whipped cream and caramel sauce and we were good to go! Find out more about my shopping experience HERE in my Google+ album!

This recipe is super easy to make and no one will be able to tell you didn’t spend $5+ at the coffee shop. In fact, for an 8 oz. blended coffee drink, plus whipped cream, caramel sauce & chocolate sauce, it cost about $2 to make! That’s a great savings! Here’s how to make your own:

Mocha Sweet Cream Blended Light Coffee

Add ice cubes to your blender (I like adding just a few, blending it & adding a few more until I get the consistency I like). Add 6 oz. Mocha International Delight Light Iced Coffee & 2 oz. International Delight Cold Stone Sweet Cream coffee creamer. Blend well. Pour into your favorite glass, add a swirl of whip cream and a little bit of chocolate & caramel drizzle and ENJOY!

I also checked the calories in the amazing drink. For an 8 oz. Mocha Sweet Cream Blended Light Coffee with 2T whipped cream, 1 tsp of the butterscotch caramel sauce I used & 1 tsp chocolate syrup, this drink is only 270 calories! (The biggest part of the calorie count is the creamer. International Delight has several fat-free and/or sugar-free options if you are looking to lower the calorie count even more.)
